Serving and Storage Tips

  • Fresh Enjoyment: Best enjoyed fresh within 5 days for peak flavour and texture.
  • Freezing Instructions: Slice and freeze for up to 3 months; toast or reheat to revive its flavour.
  • Preservation: Store in a paper bag or bread box to maintain the crust while preventing moisture buildup.

 

Key Features:

  • Heirloom Grains: Made with Red Fife wheat, Canada’s oldest heritage grain, and organic cornmeal for a wholesome and nutritious loaf.
  • Natural Fermentation: Leavened with a wild sourdough starter for a tangy flavor, enhanced digestibility, and gut-friendly probiotics.
  • Nutrient-Rich: High in protein, fiber, and essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron. Sourdough’s low glycemic index makes it a balanced choice for any meal.
  • Artisan Craftsmanship: Handcrafted in small batches to ensure quality, flavor, and authenticity in every bite.

 

Ingredients:

  • Organic Red Fife Wheat Flour
  • Organic Cornmeal
  • Sourdough Starter (Water, Flour, Wild Yeast)
  • Sea Salt
  • Filtered Water

 

Sourdough Starter:

  • Improves Digestibility: The fermentation process breaks down phytic acid, an anti-nutrient that can inhibit mineral absorption, allowing for better nutrient intake.
  • Probiotic Benefits: Supports gut health and improves digestion through beneficial bacteria and prebiotic fibers.
  • Stabilizes Blood Sugar: Sourdough bread typically has a lower glycemic index than regular bread, making it a better choice for managing blood sugar levels.

 

Cornmeal:

  • Rich in Fiber: Aids digestion and helps you feel full longer.
  • Gluten-Free: Naturally gluten-free (though not entirely in this product due to the Red Fife wheat), making it suitable for gluten-sensitive diets.
  • Vitamins & Antioxidants: Contains B vitamins and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support vision health.

 

Perfect Pairings:

  • Toasted with creamy avocado, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of chili flakes.
  • Topped with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and fresh dill for a gourmet breakfast.
  • Served alongside soups, stews, or chili as a hearty accompaniment.
  • Grilled with olive oil for rustic bruschetta or artisanal sandwiches.
